Born i'm a Coffin.
MOTHER AND CHILD NARROWLY ESCAPE BEING
BURIED ALIVE.

MOTHER AND CHILD NARROWLY ESCAPE BEING
BURIED ALIVE.
A special from Columbia, 8. c., says: An extra
ordinary occurrence is reported from SummertOn,
Clarendon County. A colOred girl, seventeen years
old who had been Ill several days apparently died
last Wednesday. The body was properly prepared
and dressed for burial and placed in coffin. The
darkeys Of the neighborhOod held their customary
noisy awake" over the corpse all through Wednes-
day night The funeral services were held In the
colOred church Thursday afternoon, and the body
was to be inferred at the graveyard about miles
distant. When the cOrtege had reached a point
within 800 yards OF the cemetery the pail bearers
were startled by crying noise, somewhat resem-
bling the mewing OF cat, apparently emanating
from the coffin. The procession was halted, and,
after considerable discussion, 1t was resolved that
the cOnln should be opened. Upon removing the
lid 1t was found to the great CONSERVATION OF the
funeral company, that the woman was alive but
unconscious, and that a newborn babe shared
with her the narrow bed. Several OF the pail
bearers and mourners were terror-str1cken and
fed Those who remained, however, ministered
10 the wants OF the woman and her infant, and in
short time both were taken to a neighbOrtng
house, where they secured kindly attention. At
last accounts the mother was doing well, there
being every indication of her complete recovery,
whilst the infant is hearty and robust, and is
thriving as well as any pickaninny born under
ordinary conditions and circumstances

By majority OF about ], 900 Atlanta on Satur-
day voted in favor of licensing liquor saloons Full
ton County also voted against prohibition. The
vote was the heaviest that has been cast In the
county since the Presidential election, The CAM
paign which preceded the voting was the liveltest
the county has had for years. and men and women
were enlisted in IT, the great majority OF the latter
fayortng prOhibttiOnStS. Ladies of the prohibition
faction presided over the many lunches spread by
their party AMI dispensed coffee TO all who wished
for IL. The wet party had similar lunch counters
but from these people were served by professional
walters. Excitement ran high all day and there
were number OF encounters between the hot
headed ones OF both factions One of the most
striking features OF the day was the appearance
on the street OF a number OF ''praytng bands ~
made up OF young women who, decked with blue
ribbons, visited the various polling places and
sang religious and prohibition songs and hymns
The street show OF the anti-prohibit1onists was
confined to number of small street parades the
men carrying red and white flags bearing the in

Increase In the rate favOring the sale OF liquor
These had dampening effect upon the ardOr
OF the local prohibitionfsts, and an hour later
they gave up the fight, and virtually abandoned
the polls. The darkles had disappointed the pro-
hlbitlon workers and gone over TO the liquor men
That stampede was what determined the fight
and settled the result OF the election.

Lord and Lady DalhOusie.
THEIR SUDDEN DEATHS CAUSES SENSATION IN LON
SOCIETY CIRCLE

inkin oODDhN DEATHS CAUSES A SkNSATlON IN LON-
DON SOCIETY CIRCLES
A special to the New York World from London,
November "a, says: The body Of Lord Dalhousie
arrived here to-day from Havre. His wife's body
came yesterday. None OF the papers here more
than barely mention the death of these prominent
people, and make no comment upon the tragic sud-
denness OF their taking on. The two deaths
nave created sensation in society circles.
Lady DalhOuS1e was the youngest daughter OF
the earl OF Tankerville. Her marriage was a
love match. A friend Of Dalhousies, who
studied with him at Ballot College oxford,
says that DalhOusie early In life was In
cnned TO be disstpated, but that his mar
rlage absolutely saved him from all weak
ness In that direction. He was devotedly attached
to his wife, and his passionate dependence upon
her has inclined some to think that his DEATH fol-
lowing so soon upon the death Of his wife, might
have been the result of suicidal act. They had
been married just ten years. and leave behind
them five boys, the eldest, who succeeds to the
title, being now nine years OF age. Dahousie and
his wife had planned for an extended journey
through America, but her failing health made 1t
necessary to cut short the trip. She caught a
severe cold just before they sailed from New York.
and was very Ill all the way across. Dalhouste
himself was interchangeable in watching over his
wife on the way over. and was exhausted physi-
cally upon the day OF his arrival at Havre but
there was no sign OF any mental malady. When
ne retired for the night he sank to sleep and was
found dead In his bed In the morning. certtfl-
cate OF death from apoplexy, superinduced by
shock and nervous exhaustion, was given.
